- Was compromised by a slow pace last time, indicated by blue color-coded pace figures.

Race 10: Sadler’s Joy (#2)
- May get somewhat overlooked in here due some losses late last year, but he had excuses in most of those starts.
- Almost always runs well fresh, so the time away may have done him well.
- This is an ideal distance for him if Castellano can time his late move correctly.
